Google Wallet for iOS update adds loyalty card scans and merchant notifications
Last week, loyalty card scanning was added to the Android version of Google Wallet, but today the iOS faithful can get in on the action. An update allows you to add all of those pesky rewards cards that clutter the ol’ billfold and ditch the unsightly key ring tags. Just like the previous release, you’ll just need to scan the barcode of each card and the app will automatically populate your account info. If you’ll recall, credit card snapshots were enabled on the iPhone change purse last month for adding a full range of payment options. In addition to the new frequent buyer functionality, Wallet will also notify you when you’re strolling past a merchant that matches one of those saved memberships. You know, just in case you’re having trouble finding the nearest GameStop.
